Ribbon icons

I have made a few changes to the ribbon, so far no problems.
However, I've reset the toolbar icons for explode to the old dynamite icon.
When i go to the ribbon panels, and look at the properties in the Modify2d ribbon, and find the explode, it says it's looking at the path of my dynamite icon, but it still shows the new stupid icon. Is there a reason for this? or is there someplace else i can change the ribbon icons? (there's only 2 or 3 i care enough about changing)

Re: Ribbon icons

not sure which filenames you mean, but in the properties of the ribbon, the small image and large image filenames are exactly the same as the ones for the toolbar. i even tried changing them to something else, saving the workspace, and changing them back to what i want, and it didn't work.
it wont even let me change them to a different precanned icon, either.

Re: Ribbon icons

i'm getting closer to tracking this down.
when i'm in the cui, and i go to Partical CUI--> ACAD-->Ribbon-->modify2d-->
all the way to find the explode command, and i select it, it moves the command list in the lower left to the explod command, which is set to use the old fashioned icon (dynamite)
i went to the MAP and MAPCLASSIC explode commands, and changed those icons, and then the ribbon icon changed. So the issue really, is that the command that gets highlighted isnt actually the command in the ribbon. (all the commands use the same macro, so i just changd the icons for ALL explode commands, and then the ribbon came out right.
this is an issue that really ought to be fixed by ACAD

Um, per my other posts regarding the Ribbon, if you have Acad.cui partial, you should not attempt any Ribbon customization until a fix comes out.
